Thanks Slow and Kate's_place...

I haven't heard from him in 6 days. I texted him to say hi and I love you on Tuesday. He texted back "hi cutie, my day is good so far. I hope yours is great smile. I love you too."

I didn't ask him about his day.

I haven't heard from him or texted him since.

Before the backslide, we were texting normally everyday. Is this normal? I am so confused as to how to DB. Do I initiate? I have backed off...but that's not normal, for me to back off completely. Can I text to see if he is OK? This all seems so immature and stupid. I feel like I am playing a game all alone. Does he even care? IS he wondering about me? Why is it so hard?

I started my new job yesterday. I am here (in same town as BF) commuting to work but staying with friends. I normally stay with BF when I come down, but I haven't talked to him so I am staying elsewhere.

I don't know if I should let him know I am here or not. He might wonder why I am not letting him know my plans.

I work all weekend, and on Monday night there is a Christmas party at the country club I work at. VERY NICE place, sounds like a lot of fun. I cry when I think about going without him, since nothing seems fun anymore without him. Should I invite him? I was thinking about inviting him, and then he will know I have started work, and if he says no...I will say "ok no big deal, it was last minute for me too since I just started.." If he says yes, I think we will have an incredible time. I am worried about him saying no though since he excluded me from Turkey Day.

If I do this it has to be today since it is Friday and he will need time to think about it, and I have to RSVP tonight. I was intent on no contact, but given our sitch, I am not sure what the right thing to do is.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
